We had a 15km for males and a 10 km for women today. The course was tough and the snow got sugary on the hills to make it even tougher. Congratulations to National Champions Kris Freeman and Kikkan Randall!divI didn’t have a chance to get many pictures and I have not studied the results yet, but here’s a quick take. The kids all skied pretty well. Skyler probably had his best distance skate ever and the others hung tough with solid, but not great results. This was our first skate race and we need to work on it :). No sweat, it’s good to get whopped on once in awhile. I guess that the bright side is that if you don’t feel great and you are still top 20 in the country for your age group, it’s ok./divdivWe are all looking forward to the classic race on Wednesday!br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KS_i3YM8I/AAAAAAAAB4Y/ynG5dkuv37c/s1600-h/IMG_2126.JPG”img style=”display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;” src=”http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KS_i3YM8I/AAAAAAAAB4Y/ynG5dkuv37c/s400/IMG_2126.JPG” border=”0″ alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423058521695990722″ //aIzzy said “It was tough”, but she hung in there for 10th place for J1’s.br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KSilT5ouI/AAAAAAAAB4Q/Ol-mUmwvpEQ/s1600-h/IMG_2142.JPG”img style=”display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 374px;” src=”http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KSilT5ouI/AAAAAAAAB4Q/Ol-mUmwvpEQ/s400/IMG_2142.JPG” border=”0″ alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423058024136286946″ //aGage felt terrible during the first lap, but skied better at the end.br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KSFSrXSfI/AAAAAAAAB4I/IkfjuHFvWdo/s1600-h/IMG_2132.JPG”img style=”display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_H2SCM3lmKm8/S0KSFSrXSfI/AAAAAAAAB4I/IkfjuHFvWdo/s400/IMG_2132.JPG” border=”0″ alt=”” id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5423057520918219250″ //aKikkan made it 2 for 2 as she hammered the 2nd lap and took the win./divdiv class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4680416899705879324-2435606706410469471?l=smsxc.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div
